Schwellenbach in itself indeed means nothing. If you are lyrically inclined, you may interpret it is a flooding creek. Bach means creek, and schwellen would be swelling as a verb, and as a noun any number of things, none of which make any sense.

What it REALLY means is that the Mets get shut out, though. I'm sure they saved one of those for the series finale with the Twinks.
